[Vaccination of cattle against trichophytosis in the prevention and control of dermatophytic zoonoses].
The results of a four-year study of the occurrence of trichophytosis in some cattle stocks in the Pardubice district are presented. The monoetiological nature of this mycosis is documented; this mycosis can be successfully controlled by vaccination. Experiments demonstrated a good activity of antigens which were included in commercial vaccines. The evaluation of the antibody reaction in test rabbits and in vaccinated and spontaneously infected cattle was subjected to critical analysis. However, the main point of the whole study is a general evaluation of the possibilities and limitations of cattle vaccination against trichophytosis as ensues from literary data and from the authors' experience. The results indicate that in permanent application of all the hitherto used preventive and repressive methods a technically correct active immunization of cattle means the best contribution to the control of trichophytosis. The discussion deals with the theoretical problems of the nature and duration of immunity to these diseases and with the choice of the best vaccines and vaccination procedures.
